Invisible Boys by Holden Sheppard
5.0

Riding the roller coaster of growing up in country WA. Three boys becoming men in a tough and bigoted town and time. Those are the bare bones of this tale, but that's not anywhere near the whole story. Sheppard has delivered a scathing, snarky, sad, and sombre story that wrenches at the heart, makes you want to shout at the pages and then grab for the tissues and go hug your kids.
An absolute page turner from a brilliant Australian author. A great read.
